Happy Saturday

A happy Saturday started with sunrise!
Shyla and I did some training games while we were bathed in the sunrise light. She "took a bow", worshiping the sun.
She LOVES our training. This next photo might look the same as the previous one, until you focus on her tail. These two photos were part of a rapid-fire series of photos that I took while she took her bow. The photos show that she wagged her tail during her entire long bow!
We had a great snowbike ride. At the end, I asked her to "wave to me", and she did. I know that it's not the best photo that I've ever taken but I love it anyway because it expresses how much fun Shya and I are having.
Positive training rocks, especially for a sensitive dog like Shyla. It builds her confidence and our bond.

  1. Hi Y'all!

    Everytime I see her she is more beautiful! I think I'm fallin' in love! I wish my Human would take me out there to meet Shyla, but she says it's too far away. :(

    Sorry Shyla, guess I'm destined to worship you from afar!

    Y'all come by now,
    Hawk aka BrownDog

  4. That is a great wave, Bert only raises his paw about shoulder level but it works to the pleasure of the patients at the Hospital.

    I love that Shyla is having so much fun with the training. I am gonna work harder on making it more fun for Bert
    Thanks
